More Thai culture, architecture and of course...jewelry!
The peacefulness of the monks make every job look like a meditation...even sweeping the streets. They come out very early each morning for the people to give them food. It's a blessing for both the giver and receiver.
All that glitters isn't gold, but it sure looks like it when the afternoon sun makes these temples sparkle! Wouldn't you love to wake up and see this beautiful monument?
We had dinner at Harmonique, this lovely woman's resturant in Bangkok. It was one of the best Thai resturants we've eaten at. And the service was amazing. The entire meal, including gin&tonic and all we could eat was $30!
It may be difficult to see the details of this amazing necklace I bought today, but it is truly one of a kind. It's made of blue agate, carnelian and black onyx. If you want it, call Sue at the shop today! $200. Phone# 619-435-9211 or toll free 877-435-6444. We are beginning to update our website with all the new purchases so check it out http://www.dforsythepearls.com/
Ten years ago my husband and I traveled to Vietnam for a vacation. I met some of the women trying to do business there and decided to try to help them via the Grameen Bank micro loan program. For the past ten years I've donated money and as well as employing women in Hanoi to make pearl jewelry for my customers.
Since then I've traveled to Laos, Cambodia, England, France, Turkey, Nepal,Thailand,Mexico and Greece to buy exotic one-of-a-kind jewelry.
Annually I return to Turkey and Thailand to buy gemstone jewelry.
I recently began designing my own line of jewelry using unusual gemstones to fashion beautifully designed pieces.
At 63 I have found my passion and the Universe just keeps giving me more blessings.
Three years ago, after setting up booths at women's fundraisers for six years, I opened a jewlery store in Coronado, California. And though I sell much more than pearls, the name d Forsythe Pearls remains!
